Picking a head

"Cheesehead" wrote
I recently acquired a big Bogen 3036 tripod.
It came with 3047/029 head..
I'd like to use with with the Eastman 2D.

I'm not at all familiar with the Eastman 2D. I have a 3047 head atop a Bogen
3020 tripod. I use my 6 lb. (+ lens) Zone VI 4x5 on it, and it works fine. I
removed the center column and replaced it with a special plate that was made
by Kirk ? Enterprises. That did increase the overall stability.
Unfortunately Kirk doesn't make that plate anymore, as far as I can tell.
